Football Season

It is football season again and I was so excited to get Kason a shirt that would match Makenna's dress from last year. So here they are.



Aren't these the cutest kids ever!

Halloween 2010 Part 1,2 and 3

Last Monday we went and picked out our own pumpkins for family night. It was lots of fun to go walk around and look for the perfect pumpkin. Although we were a little late picking pumpkins and they seemed to be really picked over. That's all right though because we still had tons of fun.

Looking for the perfect pumpkin

Makenna looks just like a model here. I think we might be in trouble when she gets older!

Then yesterday we went to my parents house and carved our pumpkins. It was lots of fun! Makenna picked the castle to no surprise and Kason got a smiley face because he is always so smiley!

Here's our handy man cutting our lids off for us

Makenna wasn't hesitant at all to put her hand in and start pulling everything out. She loved it!


Kason wanted to help us too!

Then last but not least the Halloween festivities wouldn't be done until we made sugar cookies and frosted them. Makenna loved cutting them out with the cookie cutters. I should have cut the recipe in half. We still have a ton of cookies. We need to get rid of them or I'll eat them all!

Kason liked eating them!

9 Month's

I can't believe how fast time has flown by!!! Kason is already nine months old! I think I have always looked forward to the fall time and Christmas time but this year I am so sad. Because once Christmas comes my baby will be a year old! I can't believe it is happening so fast! Well we took him to the Dr this week and here are his stats

Length 27.5 in 25.16%

Weight 20.77 lb 55.32%

Head 18 in 63.68%

Kason is such an active boy. He is always wiggling and moving around. He rolls all over the place and he can do an army crawl/scoot. It is just the cutest thing ever! He is also loving food. He will eat about everything we put in front of him. I wonder if he is going to be one of those teenagers that is never full! He is also a spitter. He loves to spit. He does it when he's playing, eating, or talking with people. He is really cute when he gets excited and he just starts spitting. Although it is a little embarrassing when you are at church or out in public and he is spraying strangers but oh well. He's just too cute and lovable to care. Kason also has three teeth now and lots of cute fuzzy hair on top of his head. I'm still learning how to control it but I love it! He is just that happiest, sweetest, cutest, most lovable little boy I could ever ask for and we sure do love him!

Fancy Nancy

Makenna loves the Fancy Nancy books so I took her to the Fancy Nancy party at our city library. They hadn't expected such a turn out so they didn't have enough supplies for the activity and you really couldn't hear the story but Makenna loved it anyway. Most of the kids were all dressed up fancy, and of course Makenna got to dress up. Here are some pics of her dressed all fancy.

We borrowed my sisters feather boa, just like Nancy has in the books.

Makenna is still talking about it and can't wait to go again next time!

He's on the move

This is where I found Kason the other day.

It won't be long until he is all over the house!

First Day of School

Tuesday was Makenna's first day of school. Well Joy school actually. There are a bunch of girls her age in our neighborhood so we put together a group and are doing a Joy school for the kids. There are seven of them counting Makenna. We started this week and Makenna was so excited to go. I let her pick out a new shirt to wear and she wanted to take her "pack back" (backpack). She was a little confused thought because she wanted to ride a bus to school. I told her in a couple years she could but then realized that we will be walking to school. But hopefully she will get to ride a bus for field trips. She had lots of fun and can't wait to go to "goose" (school) next week!

Daily Occurances

Lately Makenna and Kason have been so funny and they have been doing the cutest things! Makenna's new word is "Really." And she doesn't use it once she repeats it about 3 or 4 times. She is always saying, "I'm really, really, really, hungry," or I'm really, really really, thirsty." It is so cute and I don't even know where she came up with it, but I love it. Also,this is what Makenna looks like every day.

She is definitely our little princess, and we sure do love her! She loves to play dress up and dance around and everyday she has on a crown. This is her second one since her birthday. The first one broke and she wanted Santa Clause to bring her a new one. But when I took her to the dentist last month they let her pick a prize from the basket for being such a brave girl and we found this crown. Now she doesn't have to wait so long for Santa to come. That is, if this one last that long!

Now as for Kason, he has become since a wiggler. I can not believe how active he is. He was so still in my stomach that I was always so nervous because he never moved. He is sure making up for it now! He rolls all over the place, and never stays where I put him. This is where I usually find him in the mornings. I leave him on his back with his head facing the other direction. He just completely turns himself around!

Isn't that the cutest thing ever!

He isn't crawling yet but he will push his feet and scoot towards a toy or he will roll over to it. Now this might not come as a surprise to most of you. That's what babies usually do. But with Makenna she was sitting like a pro by 4 months and she never rolled over and never really crawled. I put her down and she stayed there tell she was 14 months and was walking.

We have two baskets one filled with diapers and one filled with toys and he will roll over to them and dump them out. He is already getting into everything! Oh, but it is the cutest things ever! I just love this little man!
